Sinclair Martin said her son wasn’t an activist, but she believes that as a young man of color he went to CHOP to educate himself about the larger Black Lives Matter movement.

Big mistake.

[LateBoomer]

Seattle’s leadership clearly let this anarchy happen and even condoned it.

However, her son is an adult who entered the Zone of his own free will after it had been widely publicized that Police were not allowed in.

She needs to sue Antifa. They bankrolled this mess after riding in on the backs of the BLM movement.

He loved basketball and football, and was pursuing a rap career.

OK.

[VTenigma]

He was also pursuing a career in auto theft.

[Mark17]

Probably was. Anytime I hear that rapper thing, I get a little skittish. 😁🤪🤣😊

EVERY black kid thinks he’s the next Snoop Fag

The Mayor and the City Council won’t have to pay a dime for any civil lawsuit award to the victims family.

“He loved basketball...Pursuing a rap career”?!?!?

I seriously thought this was written as satire. That is a funny line. What’s even more hilarious is that she said he went to CHOP to “educate himself”! That little turd just wanted to break shit and get high. You raised a criminal lady. Deal with it.

Can’t say I disagree with any of that. 😁

Swim with sharks to educate yourself on shark behavior?? How stupid.

Sinclair Martin, a caseworker at Seattle’s People of Color Against AIDS Network, said her son helped out during yearly counts of people living outdoors and participated in a Rainier Beach youth program. He loved basketball and football, and was pursuing a rap career.

Her charming looking son.

Is this the guy who CHOP tried to administer their own first aid and waited 1/2 hour to take him to the hospital?

And blocked police and paramedics from assisting him?

Then THEY are the ones to sue if nobody takes any responsibility for him going into that situation of his own free will.

[I want the USA back]

The mayor and governor are responsible for the death.

[Diogenesis]

GS is smiling and laughing, too.

[Getready]

Hoisted by their own petard.

[FLT-bird]

She’s got a good case. Seattle politicians let the thugs take over a sector of the city to have as a lawless area. They are responsible for what happened there.

Aspiring rapper always seem to morph into expiring rapper

[CharlesWayneCT]

because he was shot by protestors, the paper says 19 yo man.

if police had killed him, he would be a teenager.

[ShadowAce]

You raised a criminal lady. Deal with it.

CHOP was meant to evict the city of Seattle and their laws. The kid chose to join it, thus agreeing with the principle.

The city has no liability.

He was a good boy, riding around in a stolen Jeep at night.🙄
